He further contended that the inspector had erred in principle in, inter alia, attaching no weight at all to the fact that the bridleway had been entered on the definitive map, and that he should instead have treated it as highly material evidence of the existence of a right of way.
The scheme of the procedure under Sch 15 was that if, in the course of the inquiry, facts came to light which persuaded the inspector that the definitive map should depart from the proposed order, he should modify it accordingly, subject to any consequent representations and objections leading to a further inquiry.
